Located between the forest massifs of Chaourçois and the Othe forest, Ervy-le-Châtel has many charms. The village takes its name from the local lord who ruled this stronghold until the 9th century: the Ervy family. The Armance flows at the foot of the town. There is also a feudal mound nearby. These are probably the ruins of the original castle.
